Health and wellbeing in the workplace

The new forms of work organization (NFOT), the accelerated pace of change, have produced a real surge of psychosocial disorders in the workplace over the past two decades, marked by dramas that have been widely publicized in several large companies or public institutions. Illness at work has become a fact of society that it can no longer be ignored.

The discomfort at work can take various forms ranging from stress to harassment, burnout, violence or TMS (musculoskeletal disorders).

Even if work by nature has ambivalent effects on the health of employees and can lead to fatigue or exhaustion, it is also a place of blossoming, belonging to a collective, building identity. Two dimensions are particularly important when it comes to preserving the health of people at work:

Decrease in motivation

As such, the employer is obliged to assess the possible risks and to take all necessary measures to ensure the safety and health of the employees of his company. To this end, it must develop and maintain a single risk assessment document (RED).

With experience in psychology and occupational health, our interventions are located at several levels of prevention of psychosocial risks :
